Getting Started
New to the server? Connect from Java or Bedrock, check your starter tools and food, learn the 12-hour newcomer safeguard, and find your first place to build.
Getting Started is the path for new players on Sunday Market, a public survival server where Java and Bedrock share one world. You connect with an ordinary Minecraft client and no mods, and Bedrock players need no Java account. The address and ports for both editions are on the join page; the pages below cover the rest.
Three things to do, in order: connect, check your starter kit, find a place to build.
Once you're in, your first quest starts by itself: one short goal at a time, paying coins as you go. Type /quests to see them all. More in Quests.
Step 1 — Connect
Sunday Market is crossplay. Both editions, same world, same chat, same economy.
- Java Edition — PC, Mac, Linux
- Bedrock Edition — phones, tablets, consoles, Windows 10/11 Bedrock
You don't need a Java account to play on Bedrock. The bridge handles authentication automatically.
Step 2 — Check your starter kit
Your first-join kit contains a stone sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel, 16 cooked beef and a Leather Pack. It arrives automatically. Use /help for in-game topics and /rules for the house rules. Full breakdown: Starter kit.
Occasional chat notices point to server features and rules. Use /help for the matching topic when you want more detail.
Step 3 — Find a place to build
Your First Day walks you through the protected welcome area, /wild, the first 12 hours of newcomer protection, claiming a build, and earning coins.
What you should know up front
- 18+ server. Chat is unfiltered; behave like an adult.
- PvP is off at spawn and in the market beside it. Elsewhere, fights run on consent; see PvP before you swing at anyone.
- Death drops your inventory, but a recovery chest spawns at the spot to hold it for a limited time — head back promptly.
- Travel starts right away.
/wildfinds a random wilderness landing checked for terrain hazards, with no cooldown for your first 10 completed trips. Check for nearby builds before settling. You can also build Astral runes, elevators, and other routes — see Travel.
